Can you buy an updated Peanut with newer remote codes?

I just got a new Sony STRDE895 reciever to replace my aged Pioneer VXS9300S.
Unfortunately I can't get any of the codes presented by Tivo for Sony
recievers to work with the volume buttons or the mute button.

Does Tivo ever produce updated Peanuts that have newer remote codes in them?
I know that I true universal remote is an option, but for the most part the
Tivo remote is what I prefer to use.

I have the STRDE935 and it works fine, I cant imagine the code is
different. Is it turning off your TV?

Turning off the TV? The TV is the same and the Tivo remote still can turn
the TV on and off. It can't adjust the volume or mute the volume on my new
receiver, despite trying all of the Sony remote codes in the Remote setup.

Understood, I was trying to diagnose the problem and was curious if the
TV part of the remote still funcioned as you would expect.

receiver, despite trying all of the Sony remote codes in the Remote setup.

I understand this as well, consider this my post stating how cuirous it
is that my reciver, although slightly older, is part of the same model
line (actually the 900 series is, well 1 up but mine is older) the
remotes back then were exactly the same and in fact I later bought a
SONY 300 CD player with the more expensive remote and it controlled my
Reciever out of the box. Sorry I guess I cant help, just surprised that
sony would change it.

You can never trust a woman; she may be true to you.

I guess the solution to this, according to what I've read, is to switch the
reciever's IR coding from AV2 (the default setting) to AV1. Apparently AV1
is a more common IR coding that Tivo remote will work with.

I haven't verified this, but I've seen a couple of google posts that suggest
this can work.

I am having the exact same problem because I too just upgraded my ols
Sony receiver. I LOVE the peanut and want to stick with it! Is there
any way of getting it to control the new Sony receivers, or any reason
to expect TiVo to put out newly coded peanuts? Is this somehow
related to Sony trying to get people to buy Sony TiVo players?
